Directions
Combine Dough ingredients in mixer with kneading attachment
Knead for 12 min. Dough should not be sticky. Spray bowl with oil and cover with plastic. Let dough rise for two hours.
Meanwhile, Make topping and refrigerate.
Combine the Topping ingredients and mix by hand until you reach a play doh consistency
Traditionally there is a white, pink and brown variation. For pink - add natural red food coloring or strawberry drink powder. For Brown - add 1 Tbsp of chocolate powder.
When dough is finished rising - Line two cookie sheets with parchment
- Divide dough into 8-10 pieces
- Form into flat balls, cover while you prepare the topping so they don’t dry out or rub softened butter on top.
Divide topping into golf size balls, Form them into a circle with a tortilla press or pat with hands and place on each dough ball. About 1/8 of an inch thick.
Create shell design of choice with a small knife. The topping shouldn’t overlap on cookie sheet too far
Let rise for 45 min.
- Preheat oven with a 9x13 filled with water at the bottom of the oven.
Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 min. Enjoy with hot chocolate!
